The Wellington MTB Club took these very seriously, and have undertaken an investigation into the circumstances.

Through this investigation, we have found that the allegations were unfounded, and that there is no evidence, nor any witnesses to confirm that there was any cheating. Therefore, with the exception of the finding of a timing error, the results will stay as posted.

We would like all conversation of these allegations to stop in this very public forum, as it is extremely unfair to discuss these rumours, and damage someones reputation based upon hearsay.

If anyone feels that the club has not investigated this properly, they should contact me directly at president@wmtbc.org.nz and I will discuss this with you.
